Experimenting with Gantt Charts

gantt
    title Project Timeline
    dateFormat  YYYY-MM-DD
    section Phase 1
    Task A            :a1, 2024-08-01, 10d
    Task B            :after a1, 7d
    section Phase 2
    Task C            :2024-08-15, 10d
    Task D            :after c, 5d
    section Phase 3
    Task E            :2024-09-01, 12d
    Task F            :after e, 7d

Explanation

• Gantt Chart Basics: The gantt keyword starts the Gantt chart definition.

• Title and Date Format: title sets the title of the chart, and dateFormat defines the date format used.

• Sections: The section keyword creates different phases or sections within the Gantt chart.

• Tasks: Each task is defined with a label, start date, and duration (e.g., 10d for 10 days). The after keyword allows tasks to start after others.
